Mt talktalk connection has been great up until they upgraded it recently. Now the speed has dropped through the floor take a look
Slow



I guess its just get on the phone to TalkTalk but I thought I'd just ask if anyone had any idea of the ideal settings for a router so I could check this off the list before I do.

I would check the talktalk site but its so heavy with graphics and c*ap its been loading for the last 10mins.

locostbuilders loads ok (strange)

Perhaps no-one is happy with it so they're all looking at the site to complain...

It looks very slow though...

no probs with my talktalk connection or aol/talktalk home page
used to get lots of dropouts and bad connections with the standard talktalk router changed to wireless unit (edimax) and now have no problems at all

Suggest you speak with Talk talk.

If you have had your speed upgraded along with all the other users on your DSL concentrator. It may be worth asking what talk talk has done to the back end bandwidth? A faster access link does not necesarily mean faster down loads. What really matters is the contention ratio taken with a packet loss or GOS figure.

hope this helps.
